    On my toes - 5 good ones
    On my knees - about 30

    This is serious improvement considering I basically faceplanted the first time I tried (and that was on my knees)

    Using the knees, about 7 good ones, or 15 not so good ones...

    Without using the knees, maybe half of one. hahaha

    I just started working on upperbody strength. I don't have much..... :ohwell:

    About 70 or so at a guess - I was doing that '100 push up' programe, but had some upper back pain so was trying to eliminate possible causes where possible.

    I've done 20 standard in a row. I'm sure I could get in a couple more if I tried.

    50, maybe a few more.

    I'm doing the 100 pushup challenge right now its a 6 week program with the goal of being able to do 100 pushups at the end. Check it out at http://hundredpushups.com/

    I can do 12-15 men style push ups. I would be able to do more but my core gives out before my arms do. I need to build up my core.

    To be honest, I can only do 10 medicine ball push ups at a time...

    I have to admit that I am much better at cardio exercises such as Zumba or hip-hop dance...

    30 with my feet on a ball. I believe it working out as many muscles as once. The ball helps me work on my core as well. :)

    About 16 LOL. But I couldn't do any when I started lifting about 6 months ago, so yay I guess.

    8 one arm pushups with each arm.

    About 30 regular pushups. Been higher, but unless I specifically train high rep standard pushups my ability atrophies to about 25 or so, even if working higher resistance pressing exercises.

    I can do 10 "man push-ups" with reasonable form, without stopping. If I rest for 5 seconds I can do another 10 (For a totally of 20) but after that I do girl push-ups.

    I can do 20 "girl push-ups" or more depending on what else I've done in the workout.

    I used to be able to do a lot more of both in my kickboxing days :/

    About 20 or so. My wrist is messed up from sports and that usually is what makes me quit long before muscle failure.
